Architectural North-Facing Living with a Separate Studio for Work, Guests or Income

INSPECTIONS BY APPOINTMENT, CONTACT AGENT TO ARRANGE PRIVATE INSPECTION. Architecturally designed and built by a bespoke builder, this five-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom residence with a fully self-contained studio offers exceptional flexibility and enduring quality in one of Yarralumla's quietest streets. Designed to embrace its true north-facing orientation, the home is filled with natural light and winter warmth throughout. Designed with multigenerational living in mind, the residence offers generous, well-considered spaces that comfortably accommodate family life at every stage. A separately accessed, DA-approved studio provides outstanding versatility-ideal for independent living, a professional home office, guest accommodation or additional income potential. From the moment you arrive, the home's architectural intent is clear. The entrance leads to elegant formal living and dining areas, anchored by a gas fireplace and bespoke custom joinery. Throughout the home, exquisite timber detailing adds warmth and texture, including a statement spotted gum staircase and handcrafted limewashed maple trim-elements that reflect both craftsmanship and a strong connection to natural materials. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen is both refined and highly functional, featuring stone benchtops, premium appliances, a gas cooktop with dual ovens, and an expansive walk-in pantry. The adjoining meals area creates a seamless flow for everyday living and entertaining. A large, well-appointed laundry flows directly to the kitchen and incorporates a wine cellar and powder room for added convenience. Accommodation is thoughtfully zoned for privacy and flexibility. Upstairs, the master suite is a serene retreat with a walk-in robe, elegant ensuite, and private balcony capturing sweeping views across the Brindabellas, Black Mountain and Red Hill. A second bedroom completes the upper level. The ground floor offers three further generous bedrooms, a family bathroom, a study nook and excellent storage throughout. Both the home and studio enjoy a prized north-facing aspect. The separate 52m² studio, newly completed in 2025, is a striking contemporary addition featuring vaulted ceilings, a full kitchen, concealed bathroom and laundry, and seamless indoor–outdoor flow to a substantial alfresco entertaining area. The surrounding gardens form a private sanctuary, enhanced by a Vergola roof system, feature pond and waterfall, firepit zone and established landscaping-designed for year-round enjoyment. Modern comfort and technology are seamlessly integrated, with three independent ducted air-conditioning systems, smart home functionality, CCTV security and Cat6 cabling throughout. Heated bathroom floors and architectural LED lighting further elevate everyday living. For discerning buyers who recognise quality, this is a rare opportunity to secure a bespoke, defect-free home at a price below replacement cost.
